Abstract
Carbon dioxide absorption broadened by argon is studied on the basis of the asymptotic line wing theory. The line shape parameters concerned with the classical potential governing the center-of-mass motion and the quantum intermolecular interaction potential are found. The temperature dependence of the CO2-Ar absorption beyond the 4.3 mm band edge is explained through changes in the classical potential describing the temperature behavior of the second virial coefficient in the temperature region under study.
